Honda SH350i 2021

Honda SH350i 2021

Apart from the somewhat grimmer-looking LED headlights, the main difference between the new SH350i and the SH300i is the new, 50-cubic larger engine. This makes the SH350i even more agile than the already amazingly nimble SH300i. The handling is as stable as you would expect from the big wheels, yet pleasantly manageable and, above all, very comfortable. The practical Smart Key system remains, new are the HSTC traction control as a "safety net" and the full LCD instruments that make the 350 SH a smart evolution of the SH300i.
